It's something I saw :mentioned on one of the lists - either -advocacy or -chat. The machine on my desk at work had this problem trying to install 3.0-RELEASE via NFS. The hang occurred at ifconfig up time, not boot time. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to use FreeBSD because of it. Not getting my constant unix fix would be a bad thing. The machine is a Compaq EN PII-350. Interestingly, it happened with my machine, but not with a cow-orkers which is exactly the same. (By actual inspection, not by model.)
